I believe it's fine if government gets involved with alternative energy sources at the Research and Development phase but once they start picking winners and losers, investing in particular companies, then, it's pretty obvious political corruption takes over.. example Solyndra (a pay-off to political Pals..)
I say let individuals and corporations decide when a product is profitable and put it on the market.. Government is far to corrupted to make an intelligent choice...
OBAMA: We're making new investments in the development of gasoline and diesel and jet fuel that's actually made from a plant-like substance, algae. You got a bunch of algae out here, right? If we can figure out how to make energy out of that, well, we'll be doing all right.
OBAMA: You can bet that, since it's an election year, they're already dusting off their three-point plan for two dollar gas. And I'll save you the suspense. Step one is to drill and step two is to drill. And then step three is to keep drilling. We heard the same line in 2007 when I was running for president. We hear the same thing every year. We've heard the same thing for 30 years. Well, the American people aren't stupid. They know that's not a plan.
Gas is up to $4.37 a gallon in my area of California...
I blame Obama/Democrat policies...
Of course you do.
Say, what policy of Obama makes the price of gas go up, even though there is an over-supply of oil at the moment.
Drilling would bring us more oil, true, but more than enough oil doesn't seem to be doing jack-shit to the price of oil at the moment, contrary to the laws of supply and demand.
I wonder why that is...
Obama wants higher gas prices because he's fighting for the middle class......
And nevermind that the car you might plug in could burn down your house...Libs tout electric cars, but then make it harder to produce electricity by stopping nuclear power plants, shutting down coal plants, etc.....all in the face of our national grid stretched to the max in the summer months.
So in the future you will have to choose either to plug in your car or have the lights on in your house....
With all these czars and all the environmental regulations restricting energy production, it's just a matter of time before we all end up in one of these:
How else are we supposed to subsidize the House of Saud?Gas is up to $4.37 a gallon in my area of California...

Oversupply? Is that why we still import 9 million barrels a day?
Hell? I'm waiting for Chris to explain to us about Obama's 'Algae' remark in Florida yesterday and whom he think will get the nod for Pond Scum Czar...I'm eager to have Chris tell us about "tax breaks" for the oil industry.
"What's the real cost of gas in America?"
Has anyone answered, JOBS, yet????
Those jobs don't count. All you have to do is hearken back to the Keystone XL debate to know that."What's the real cost of gas in America?"

True enough. We had many Statists in here this week telling us Obama never declined the pipeline...Those jobs don't count. All you have to do is hearken back to the Keystone XL debate to know that."What's the real cost of gas in America?"

Drill domestically if you want the cost of oil (and everything else) to go down.

I've worked in both the Eagle Ford and the Barnett and I am consistently shocked at how many people don't realize just how much oil is sitting down there. Hell, even the drillers underestimate how much there is!
As far as I'm concerned, the way the government has handled ethanol up to now should disqualify them from getting involved in energy R&D forevermore.I believe it's fine if government gets involved with alternative energy sources at the Research and Development phase but once they start picking winners and losers, investing in particular companies, then, it's pretty obvious political corruption takes over.. example Solyndra (a pay-off to political Pals..)

My basic belief is...the more government is limited, the far better off we are so, eh...
